Haunted Captain Faifield Inn in Kennebunkport, Maine

Overlooking the banks of the Green River in Kennebunkport is the Captain Fairfield Inn. Captain James Fairfield and his wife lived in the house for five years until James died of pneumonia. The mansion was a private home until 1991. When renovations started, an apparition identified as Captain Fairfield was seen floating in an area of the basement.

Some spirits get angry or distressed when changes are made to the home they lived in, but Captain Fairfield seems to be pleased with the changes. James Fairfield is a benevolent spirit who enjoys welcoming guests into his home. If you want to meet the captain, the best place to encounter his spirit is in the basement.

Haunted Captain Lord Mansion B&B in Kennebunkport, Maine

Kennebunkport is known as a quaint coastal town, with a rich history dating back to the 1600s. Many ship captains settled here and built their homes ages ago. In 1812, Captain Nathaniel Lord built his mansion with his wife, who many suggest still lives there. Captain Lord himself, did not live long enough to enjoy his mansion with his wife. Guests who stay in the “Lincoln Room” often tell of their encounters with a woman dressed in 1800’s clothing watching them. The Lincoln Room was original called “The Wisteria Room” which means “Remembrance of the Dead.” That has since been changed. Guests have encountered the Captain Lord’s wife’s spirit in the room and on the spiral staircase of the mansion. She must really enjoy the view!

The haunted mansion stayed in Captain Lord’s family until 1972, when it became a boarding house for elderly ladies. In 1978, it was remodeled and became the Captain Lord Mansion Bed and Breakfast that we know today.

The Haunted Doherty Hotel

Hotel operators downplay any activity in the hotel, but it’s been investigated a few times by paranormal researchers. When we interviewed the hotel they were tight-lipped so any information you have is welcome.
